Chapter 1038: Attack on Pearl Harbor

Hawaii's Oahu is located in the West 10th Ward and Tokyo is the East 9th Ward, with a time difference of 19 hours.

At two o'clock in the morning on December 8, Zaozi Lanya Central Villa Manor.

"You go to sleep, you don't need to stay here with me, according to the time in Hawaii, it is eight o'clock on the morning of the 7th, and the air force of the Japanese Navy is estimated to have begun to carry out a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, but we have received a notice from the United States that it will be at least five or six o'clock." Han Lin said.

He was right, at this time, the first wave of the Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor had successfully begun, and huge explosions were constantly heard in Pearl Harbor, black smoke filled the entire port, and the home port of the Pacific Fleet became a purgatory on earth, and ships and planes were attacked frantically.

"There are still three or four hours, and it will soon be here, Japan will attack Pearl Harbor in the United States, which will lead to a big war, and on such an important day, we will not have any sleep, and those who play mahjong will play mahjong, and those who play cards will be waiting for your good news." Jin Minjie said with a smile.

All the high-level officials of the secret service gathered in Han Lin's villa manor to wait for news, and the people from the intelligence stations in various places probably did not sleep either, waiting for the telegram notification from the headquarters.

Sleeping at such an important moment is almost impossible!

The outbreak of the Pacific War was a turning point related to World War II, and the United States was also dragged into the war, which brought great hope for the victory of the War of Resistance against Japan.

Don't look at the only a few hours of waiting, but it is extremely tormenting.

Jingle bells, the phone rings.

Han Lin picked it up and heard that it was Smith who called and informed him that the commander of the Hawaii garrison and the commander of the Pacific Fleet reported to the presidential palace that the Japanese army had attacked Pearl Harbor at 7:55 Hawaii time, and that all eight battleships had suffered heavy losses, as well as the losses of other warships and aircraft, and the casualties were still being counted.

The Japanese ambassador to the United States submitted a declaration of war to the U.S. government, but more than an hour after the attack on Pearl Harbor, this move made the U.S. government extremely indignant. The President decided to give a speech at the Capitol at noon today, asking the Senate and the House of Representatives to authorize a declaration of war against Japan.

"Boss, Japan and the United States are at war?" Jin Minjie saw Han Lin put down the phone and hurriedly asked.

"That's right, the U.S. side has confirmed the fact that Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese planes, you can tell everyone the good news, I have to call Director Chen quickly, the commission is also waiting! But the question is, I gave the Americans relevant information in advance, why did they suffer such heavy losses? Han Lin was puzzled.

He immediately picked up the phone and told Chen Yanji about the report of the U.S. Embassy in Shancheng, and as soon as he put down the phone, he saw a group of people standing sneakily outside the study.

"Why are you so excited?" He asked curiously.

"This is what you said, as long as the United States enters the war, the time for Japan's destruction is just around the corner, and it may end the War of Resistance against Japan in four or five years, and we are finally looking forward to the dawn." Cao Jiandong said with a smile.

"Don't be too happy, these years are also the most difficult time for our Shancheng government to resist Japan, with the Japanese army occupying Southeast Asia, the only land transportation channel Yunnan-Burma Highway has also been cut off, foreign aid and trade of military materials, can only be transported by air, the number is much lower than the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and the battle with the Japanese army will be greatly affected."

"And the biggest impact of the war between Japan and the United States on our secret service is to be able to get a lot of American assistance, in fact, our work itself has not changed much, it is still a team to carry out intelligence activities, starting tomorrow, we will be busy with whatever we need to do." Han Lin said with a smile.

"It's morning, you have to have breakfast anyway, right?" Gao Ruian said.

"Anyway, it's also the rank of major general of the Shancheng government, and even this bit of cheapness has to be taken advantage of, okay, since you put it forward, of course I accept it, you go to the street to buy breakfast, I'll treat you!" Hurry up, I'll be on duty in the chamber later, waiting for the notification of the U.S. government's declaration of war on Japan, and the Yamashiro government is also going to declare war on Japan, Germany, and Italy. Han Lin said.

This is the truth, since the July 7 Incident, the Yamashiro government has only issued the "Declaration of Self-Defense and Anti-Japanese War", that is, the War of Resistance for more than four years, the nature of which is only self-defense, not a war between the two countries, until the United States declared war on Japan, the Yamashiro government followed the declaration of war against the Axis powers.

The second station of the chamber.

"Deputy Director Han!"

As soon as Han Lin and a few attachés got out of the car to get to the office, they met Tang Zong on the way.

Although the other party is the leader of the major general, his position is one level lower than him, and when the two met, Tang Zong had to give way in a proper manner, this is the rule of officialdom, and the grievances in his heart at this moment almost suffocated internal injuries.

"Team Leader Tang, Japan and the United States are about to enter a state of war, and the Japanese army in China will definitely attack the concessions of the British and American countries, you must pay attention to the dynamic situation of the Japanese army reported by various places, I am entrusted by Director Chen to hold a military situation analysis meeting tonight." Han Lin said lightly.

Chen Yanhe, as President Jiang's chief of staff, was involved in major changes in the world pattern during this time, and there were many things to do, and he had no time to deal with the official affairs of the second department of the chamber, especially the intelligence work, so Han Lin was temporarily in charge of this part.

"Yes!" Tang Zong had to stand solemnly and obey orders, and the official was crushed to death.

Han Lin entered the second place of the attendant room, and under Han Lin's deliberate provocation, the two began to fight in secret, fighting back and forth, and as a result, Han Lin was promoted all the way to deputy director, and he was still standing still.

"Boss, this Team Leader Tang is afraid that he grits his teeth with hatred!" Li Peiyue said with a smile.

"People have to bow their heads under the eaves, I don't care what he thinks, if the work is not done well, beware of me cleaning him up, it is estimated that he will not be able to stay in the attendant room, sooner or later he will have to get out, don't think I don't know about the little actions he did in private."

"If you want to get close to the eldest prince, although the idea is very good, not everyone has this qualification, I can, you can't! When the president has not yet retired, as a senior staff officer around him, he has such a mind, isn't this half-hearted, who would like such a subordinate? Han Lin said.

As President Jiang's senior staff officer and the director of intelligence work, his advantages are too great, and Dai Li and Xu Enzeng, the two spy leaders, also have to give some face, and they dare not offend him easily.

But Han Lin is not afraid, Tang Zong's power and influence completely come from President Jiang's trust, and Han Lin's trust and attention are incomparable to him.

Tang Zong, who returned to the office, had a very ugly face, and he knew very well in his heart that as Han Lin's status continued to improve, he would have to attack himself sooner or later.

At the beginning, he was a killer and secretly investigated Han Lin's hoarding of cotton yarn for profit and making a fortune, but in the end, not only did he not achieve his goal, but he aroused the dissatisfaction of the emperor's relatives and relatives, the stinky girl of the Kong family, who was neither male nor female, often said bad things about him in front of President Jiang and his wife, if it were not for President Jiang's trust, his fate would definitely be miserable.

If Han Lin doesn't know that he is beating a sticky stick behind his back, it is a big joke, Han Lin is specialized in intelligence, this kind of behavior cannot be investigated by ordinary people, but he can't hide it from this guy, the reason why he has been holding back is probably waiting for the opportunity.

Tang Zong is not a character who sits still, but it is easy to say but too difficult to fight back, the other party is the deputy director, and he has an absolute advantage, and he doesn't need to play any conspiracy, he can directly find fault with his work, and he can ruin his impression in President Jiang's heart step by step.

His sense of smell was extremely keen, and he was aware of President Jiang's secret cultivation of the eldest prince, and he once wanted to get close to the eldest prince, hoping to catch up with the line, and also avoided being plotted by Han Lin, but the eldest prince did not want to accept him, and deliberately kept a distance.

I can't afford to provoke it, I can always afford to hide, right?
